I always just use a 1/4 inch drive socket and a
speed wrench to spin the oil pump. I put a oil gauge on a short length of hose
screwed into the back oil galley port where the sending unit goes to watch for
oil pressure. You will certainly know when that comes up as the wrench will turn
much harder. I also always pack the oil pump cavity with petroleum jelly and the
oil filter with some oil to speed up the process.
